I don&#8217;t think Manchester City wants to give him up either.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Since Leroy still has two years left on his contract, there is no reason to take action.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Therefore, I am assuming that he will stay and I would of course be happy about that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Federico Chiesa, Rodri, Matthijs de Ligt TRANSFER NEWS w\/Squawka\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uOmqzF0ED98?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Subscribe to <a href=\"http:\/\/sqwk.at\/Squawka-Sub\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Squawka\u2019s Youtube channel here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Draxler: No one is discussing Sane&#8217;s future<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Gundogan and Sane are joined by Paris Saint-Germain winger Julian Draxler in the Germany squad this summer, with Joachim Low&#8217;s men looking to take control of their qualifying group for Euro 2020.<\/p>\n<p>And while Draxler believes Sane would be a good addition to Bayern, the 25-year-old admits his team-mates future is not being discussed in the German camp.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t feel like he is forcing a transfer, but in football anything can happen,&#8221; Draxler said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t ask him personally if he&#8217;s going or not, but there have been some jokes.
